I went to change a burnt out bulb in my left side headlight but when pushing in the new bulb, I found that the entire reflector was loose and got pushed forward about 3/4 inch into the glass lens. I tried to pull it back but it wouldn't come backward.

Wondering if I need a new headlight assembly or if this can be fixed by removing the glass lens and pushing it back from the front side.

It turned out the new headlight bulb did not make a difference. Not sure but I wonder if there is a grounding problem because the reflector is loose?
